To use these HEY DUDE men's boots, simply slip them on using the easy - on system and the heel pull tabs. The elastic laces ensure a snug fit. When it comes to maintenance, clean the waxed canvas upper gently with a soft cloth. Since it's treated with a water - repellent spray, it can withstand light rain, but avoid submerging them in water. If the insole gets dirty, you can remove it and wash it separately. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to keep them in good condition.
